Description

A cute vintage silver plated piggy bank – would have been a Christening gift back in the day.

The piggy comes apart in two easily and can be fixed in place with a screw below.
Money slot to top, blue bead/glass eyes, coil tail, little legs.
All quite simple and retro, probably made in Hong Kong for somewhere like Argos.
Circa 1970s.

Polished silver has dulled and has shinier patches and blacker bit and areas of patina.
11cm long including tail x 7.5cm tall x 7.5cm wide.

He pre-loved and aged, but so adorable!
Some blacker aging spotting to the silver.
To lock the two halves in place you’ll need a little short screw in the bottom hole (missing).
Good for a shelf as he is 🙂
